Questions, comments or concerns:

It is our policy that all new appointments must be guaranteed with a credit card number. At our office, we believe that we can provide optimal care only if we have enough time set aside to adequately examine your needs and discuss your condition and treatment options in detail with you. This requires that you arrive on time for your appointment. If you are late for your appointment, we may not be able to accommodate you, and we may need to reschedule your visit. If you think that you will be late for your appointment, please call us as soon as possible so that we may advise you if your late arrival can be accommodated, or if we will need to reschedule you. All appointment changes or cancellations must be made at least 48 hours in advance to allow us to accommodate other clients. Regretfully, failure to do so, or appear for an appointment, will result in a charge to you for the booked appointment. Missed appointment fees are $125 for Dr. Elkin.

By providing us with your valid credit card number, you are authorizing our office to charge your credit for missed appointment fees as stated above. Fees only apply if you miss your appointment or cancel your appointment with less than 48 business hours notice. This fee is non-refundable. Please complete the accompanying authorization form. All information is confidential. Thank you for your cooperation and understanding in this matter. We look forward to and appreciate the opportunity to assist you in your quest to improve your life and that of your family.
